COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTIONAnderson Valley Brewing Co. first opened in downtown Boonville on December 26, 1987. This was a dream come true for those wishing to savor high quality, flavorful and perfectly balanced beers. To celebrate our 20 years of continued success, we have created a unique beer. Our Imperial India Pale Ale is loaded with excessive amounts of malts and 20 seperate additions of the finest Pacific Northwest hops. We hope you find it most enjoyable!

A- Pours a orangish yellow hue with a small, off white head that leaves lacing on the way down.
S- Smell is very hoppy, a bit floral, indistinct sweetness, caramel, maybe a little pineapple.
T- Very malty, lots of light fruit, banana, pineapple, perhaps a bit of melon, with some grapefruity hops that balance the back end pretty well but are not anywhere near the level I expected.
M- Medium to full bodied with medium carbonation.
D- This was a nice little DIPA that was definitely on the malty side. I would recommend it if it is easily obtainable.
